Text description provided by the architects. This ground-up building provides private beds, therapy spaces, and classrooms in a single-story inpatient clinic for adolescents suffering from substantial behavioral and mental health issues. Sited at The Children’s Farm Home near Corvallis, the building is the client’s first building specifically designed for higher acuity clients, as the campus originally functioned as an orphanage. The original “cottages” at the Farm Home were not well-suited to the safety and security concerns posed by this acute population, so a new facility was top priority.
